SIXERS WIN
A fear of tying the 1972-73 Sixers for worst record in NBA history looming over Sixers fans, the Sixers erased those fears once and for all ending a 12-game losing streak tonight by defeating a depleted New Orleans Pelicans side 107-93 Tuesday night at the Wells Fargo Center.
The Sixers won the game by 14 points, but it did not appear like that would be the case in the first quarter as the Sixers got off to a rough start thanks in part to Pelicans forward Luke Babbitt. Babbitt finished the game with 16 points, but he scored 14 of those 16 points in the first 14 minutes of the game frustrating many Sixers fans who could not believe their team had been reduced to getting dominated by Luke Babbitt.
